Fast Fred's Cost of Living Tips and Ecuador Room Reviews

Sweet Digs in Yambiro Otavalo Ecuador

This house belongs to a sweet couple I call friends. I don't always stay in spartan accommodations. Sometimes I fare much better than at home in the USA. This flat had it all! Nice bed, awesome bathroom, and a great kitchen. I enjoyed cooking fine meal with items from the local mercado in Otavalo. The location in Yambiro is rural and very nice. I found the local welcoming and the walk to and from town to be rather delightful and a great way to meet the locals. A bus also runs regularly throughout the day; a great way to carry more groceries or avoid bad weather. The bus also goes directly to the local bus terminal if you need to go further to points like Quito.

ABOUT ME

I primarily travel solo but you don't have to to enjoy this channel. Working as a river guide during summers in North America I don't earn a lot of money and live close to the federal poverty level. In spite of this I live a rich life on a frugal budget.
